Batwoman: Superbabes

There is almost something not right about stating up Batwoman in Superbabes. First of the character would not be amused, but she is also not "Super", well at least anymore than Batman is. And "babe" is never something she would seek out. Yes she is athletic, rich and very attractive. She considers herself a soldier first and foremost. Plus she has a lot of pathos that you don't see in the world of Superbabes. She was kicked out the Army for being gay. Her mother and twin sister were murdered. She had been kidnapped. Spent most of her days after the Army in an alcohol and sex-fueled daze. And she has some father issues as well.

But there are also a lot of reasons to include her. For starters the system includes what is obviously a "Batman" option; the Adventuress. Also, unlike the Batman himself, there are a lot of things going on in Kate's world that make her perfect for this game. She is still learning how to be a super hero for example.

Character DescriptionHeight: 5'10"Weight: 135 lbsHair: RedEyes: BlueSkin: Extremely pale CaucasianUnique Characteristics: Out of uniform Kate has a number of unique tattoos.

So this one was a real test of the Adventuress Origin. Kate can't have any ability above 20 and really no super powers. Everything comes from her own skills and the gizmos she has.
I didn't refer to her previous stats or even her official ones in DC Adventures in order to make her more "organic". She ended up about a level higher than I wanted, but I really wanted her Martial Arts at 7 or even 8.
